MP1 MP2 [TV] more consistant Fastforward? (1 Viewer) DE
No idea - sorry. Just happened to be looking through PBDA specs for other reasons, noticed this, and thought it might be relevant. It could be totally irrelevant.

Howdy, Was browsing through the EPG earlier and realised something that I wanted to ask/suggest but had completely forgotten about. Currently, as the time shifts around the bar indicating the current time moves across the screen; my suggestion is to change this behaviour and keep the bar fixed in the middle and move the EPG around...

Hi This is something that has been bubbling in the back of my mind for a little while now. Would MP benefit from having a series remind function (an extension to the current reminder system) that is stored on the TVServer (like a schedule) that is also attached to a hostname; i.e. I have two clients, A and B. Client A sets a series...

...or enable tuner preloading so the first tune doesn't take as long. ...or wait a little. gibman has done some work on "async tuning" for TVE 3.5... which means the UI would probably stay responsive while the back end is handling the tune request.

Actually, if you MANAGE MePo via RDP, then you WILL get autostart set next time you log in, it matters not which account installed as. To fix autostart, run msconfig and deselect mediaportal for th3e account you use for RDP - this can be via RDP session or console login. Ideally I would like MePo not to start EVER in RDP [as I...

Okay, then for the client part. Indeed, never had problems with TV server part. But as you said, there are several threads about corrupted databases (either MePo itself or plugin related, which does not really matter if the result is MePo crashing). So, especially for the not-so-experienced user, maybe some kind of backup- and restore...

Okay, understood. This is difficult because the settings that affect a tuner's behaviour can be global (ie. affect all tuners) or tuner-specific (ie. affect only one tuner). You may notice that all the "random" or "non-bulk" tuner-specific settings are already configured in one place...

Thanks Ron The examples certainly help my understanding of the problem. The information - name and channel number - that you see TV Server grabbing is all that we have available, so at least on that side we can't do any better. I think SchedulesDirect attempts to match on the channel number or callsign, hence it usually has a better...
